My wife's son brought the kids round this afternoon for a visit

We got talking about Wordle

He said he had heard of it but only did it a couple of times - at which point the baby, who is just starting to walk, came to me and wanted to say hello
a few minutes later I heard - "Done it"
Bar Steward had completed in in only a few minutes


and his mother is no better - she beats me most days!! (stop sniggering at the back!!!)

I don’t take long over it either. Two or three minutes max unless I’m really stuck. I would probably do it better if I did slow down a bit instead of rushing through it.

Just watched an old Midsomer Murders as there’s nothing else on. Another one right after it, but it wasn’t one of the better ones so just switched off instead.

I am supposed to be travelling on Monday. I will have to make sure the trains are running properly. If not, I might delay by a day or two.
I WILL wait... I saw a news report showing some chaos on the railways - trains in the wrong places, tracks being checked, powerlines to be repaired etc. I'll travel on Tuesday instead to give the rail companies another day to sort things out.

It usually takes me between 15 and 30 minutes.

Good morning. Wet and windy here. I've been awake too long. I have no plans for the day yet other than attempting a snooze when my brew is finished.

I've Quordled and Wordled in five today. Three choices after line three.

@ebikeerwidnes Wordle usually takes me 5-6 minutes though I did get stuck for hours a few days ago. I think it's a question of strategy and seeing patterns. I see letter patterns very quickly, I don't know why, and it's a big advantage. For example in the Saturday Guardian there is a word wheel containing nine letters. I can usually see the word instantly but if I get stuck it's very hard. I still haven't solved yesterday's and earlier this week it took me hours to see "dodge" despite having d**ge!!

Joy. We are back to rain and wind :sad:

Rushed through Wordle again and stupidly forgot to use a letter that I already knew was correct so 4 for me but only took barely a minute.

I suppose I’ll have to brave this weather if I want a bit of exercise and fresh air.
Tell you what Mo I think I'm fast but the times you sometimes mention are astonishing. 👏
